SOLDIERS BURIED IN LEE. 



LIST OF SIX WARS IN THE THREE CEMETERIES* 

COMPILED BY D. M. WILGOX. 



Revolutionary. 

In all cases where the state is omitted Massachusetts is understood. 



This list gives the names only of men 
whose graves are known, but it is certain 
that a considerable number of others 
are buried in town, some of whom rest 
in unknown graves, and tlie service of 
some others has not been traced. With 
the exception of Quaker ■•, and a few 
other exempts, all the able-bodied men 
of New England between 16 and 60 were 
enrolled in the militia from the early 
years of the colonies, and during the 
Revolution nearly all, at "one time or 
another, performed some military ser- 
vice. From lirst to last during that 
struggle the names and service of more 
than 120 men of Lee, or the territory 
incorporated into Lee in 1777, is givea 
in the compilation, "'Massachusetts Sol- 
diers and Sailors of the Revolutionary 
War." The service of some is given in 
days, some in weeks and months, and a 
few in years. Those marked with an 
asterisk were residents of L'^e at th3 
time of service.
